Why The Legend Of Tarzan Removed A Gay Kiss From The Movie
For as long as Tarzan has been adapted for movies and other media stories, he's been a good looking guy. Whether he's swinging on vines or sipping tea in Victorian society as Lord Greystoke, he has maintained a cut figure and handsome visage. It's these features, among other things, that attract his wife, Jane Porter, but in The Legend of Tarzan, he also attracted Christoph Waltz's Captain Léon Rom in a scene cut out of the movie, where Rom decided to lock lips with the Lord of the Jungle at an inopportune time.
According to director David Yates, there was a moment in The Legend of Tarzan when Rom locked lips Tarzan while he was unconscious. However, the scene felt out of place with everything else going on, and Yates decided to take it out of the final cut. As he explained to Yahoo:
We pared it back because it was almost too much. It was this really odd, odd moment when Christoph kisses him. We loved it at the time. But early test audiences were bewildered by it, and in the end it just felt too clever and o
Many believe Warner Bros. have taken a big gamble with The Legend Of Tarzan, not necessarily because of the subject, but because theyve ended up with director David Yates doing post-production on two of their biggest movies at the equal time. Hes operational on both this and the Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them, with the two films due out only four months apart.
However, even with the director doing double duty, the new trailer certainly make Tarzan sound intriguing, as good as showing once again how wonderful Alexander Skarsgard looks with his shirt off.
Heres the synopsis: From Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures comes the action adventure “The Legend of Tarzan,” starring Alexander Skarsgård (HBO’s “True Blood”) as the legendary character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
The film also stars Oscar nominee Samuel L. Jackson (“Pulp Fiction,” the “Captain America” films), Margot Robbie (“The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot”), Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou (“Blood Diamond,” “Gladiator”), with Oscar winner Jim Broadben
Alexander Skarsgard sure knows how to offset the uproar over his missing loincloth in "The Legend of Tarzan."
"I'm actually wearing it right now," teases Skarsgard, joking about the brouhaha regarding this Tarzan's more civilized article of clothing as he portrays the jungle warrior in Warner Bros.' recent take on a classic tale.
"I do all my phoners in a loincloth."
"Phoners or… ?" I ask, hinting at the obvious rhyme.
The year-old "True Blood" alum beams, cracking up. "Exactly! I do all my boners in loinclothes."
And that's just the beginning of our discovering conversation, which leads to all sorts of places: being poisoned by Lady Gaga, how other direct men should approach a gay sex scene ("dive in"), and why – after giving us his best Farrah Fawcett impersonation last year – shooting "The Legend of Tarzan" "was nothing compared to that night in drag."So, I don't comprehend if you know this, but gay men treasure you.
Oh, really?They do. Is that surprising to hear?
Well, I don't know. I've always been… I don't understand how to answer that question, but thank you. That's verThedirectorof “ The Legend of Tarzan” has revealed that the movie originally featured a kiss between male co-stars Alexander Skarsgård and Christoph Waltz.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, director David Yates said he opted to scrap a filmed scene in which Waltz’s Captain Leon Rom smooches an unconscious Tarzan (Skarsgård) after test audiences were left “perplexed.”
“We pared it back because it was almost too much,” Yates said in the July 8 interview, which was excerpted by The Mirror and The Sydney Morning Herald. “It was this really odd, odd moment when Christoph kisses him.”
Following the kiss, the captain, who is a Belgian soldier, apparently told Jane, “Your husband’s wildness disturbs me more than I can even express.”
Although Yates and the creative team “loved it at the time,” early viewers felt a bit differently.
“Early test audiences were confused by it,” he said, “and in the cease, it just felt too clever and overworked.”
Still, it’s safe to state that the cinematic sever of “The Legend of Tarzan” has lingering issues that even the sight of Skarsg
